Host, the villain's corruption level has exploded!

Chapter 700: Look at this test paper, is it passing or failing? (73)

Min Xiuze stared blankly into space all day.

Chen Ji didn't tell him much about their relationship; he would have to wait until he was mature enough. He looked at Zhang Luo, then looked down at himself. The unspoken emotions fermented even more intensely, threatening to ignite, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Who wouldn't like a handsome, charming, and wealthy young master?

But he still couldn't breathe and had a splitting headache.

He stayed in his seat until nightfall, sitting motionless until the time Song Zhishu and he were supposed to have their nightly tutoring session.

He looked up frequently, but could never see that figure.

When the time came, his stiff limbs finally began to move. Min Xiu packed his things with a blank face, went downstairs, and walked to the door. He felt something was wrong. Looking over, he realized that Grandpa Wang looked worried and hadn't performed.

Seeing him, Old Wang finally had someone to confide in: "Xiao Min! You know that Xiao Song got confessed to this afternoon, right?! I'm speechless! I knew Xiao Song was so great, someone would definitely like him, but who is that person?!"

“My son is coming back from out of town soon, and I was even thinking of introducing him to someone! But that guy, let me tell you, he doesn’t look like a good person! You have to talk to Assistant Teacher Song! She’s your good teacher, your benefactor, you can’t just watch her jump into a fire pit! Can’t you at least get her to give my Tie Niu a second glance?”

Min Xiu paused for a moment, lowered his head even further, nodded slightly, and walked out without saying a word.

Grandpa Wang sighed with emotion: "What will happen to Xiao Min now that Xiao Song is gone?"

Speaking of which, where is Xiao Song? Min Xiu was walking in the summer breeze.

Everyone knows she is a good person, everyone knows he has benefited greatly from her, and everyone knows they are very close teacher and student.

But no one knew that every night he was tormented by his emotions in bed, his stomach churning, his eyes bloodshot, and he trembled with fear of parting in the future, all of which eventually drowned in the long, eternal night.

He's going crazy.

Before he knew it, he realized he had arrived at Jiang Chu's house.

Min Xiu let out a heavy sigh and was about to turn left when he suddenly saw a figure standing at the door.

Song Zhishun looked somewhat haggard, coldly staring at him. Under the warm yellow light that Jiang Chu had changed, he was bathed in a hazy and soft glow, making him difficult to see clearly and almost dissipating with a gust of wind.

They stood there facing each other for a long time before Song Zhishu suddenly turned and left. Min Xiu was stunned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed her.

Song Zhishu left the door open for him, as if she had expected him to follow. However, the room was pitch black. When the motion-activated lights went out like a curtain falling, all he could see was darkness.

However, it didn't affect him much. He had lived in the gutter since he was a child, and he was very familiar with walking in the dark.

But Song Zhishu was different. Soon, Min Xiuze heard a loud noise and the dull thud of a person hitting the ground.

His heart skipped a beat, then began to pound rapidly. Almost instantly, he ran towards the source of the sound. It was his first time here, everything was unfamiliar, and he stumbled and bumped along the way, not caring about the bruises he sustained. Finally, he rushed into her bedroom, greeted by a sweet fragrance.

He regained his senses, barely daring to breathe, and softly called out in a trembling voice, "Song..."

He suddenly stopped; he didn't know how to call out to her.

Completely unaware

Just as he was once again caught in a hellish struggle, he heard a rustling sound of clothes against the wall. He frantically groped his way through the darkness and finally touched a trembling, soft body.

Without a second thought, he frantically asked, "How are you? Where did you bump yourself? Does it hurt?"

She did not respond.

Their figures intertwined in the darkness, the only sound being their breaths rising and falling, hers shallow and long, his heavy and deep.

Only here can the emotions he has painstakingly suppressed expand endlessly like a vast wilderness.

In the darkness, in a deserted place, only the cool moonlight shines.

"pain."

She replied with a single word, but her body trembled uncontrollably. Both she and the original owner of this body were used to and preferred bright light. Even though she knew this place inside and out, she was helpless in the face of the overwhelming darkness and could only stumble around.

"Have you been living like this all along?"

Her tone was very soft, as if veiled.

Living such aimless days, like an endless abyss.

Min Xiu was taken aback, then gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Song Zhishu didn't press him, but just smiled silently.

She didn't know what to say, nor did she want to talk about today's farce.

The silence seemed to stand still. She could feel the chill emanating from Min Xiuze, a chill that was refreshing even in the sweltering summer heat, yet it inexplicably brought tears to her eyes.

Her feigned indifference shattered instantly, a tear fell from her eye, and she said in a trembling voice, "Min Xiuze, kiss me."

He froze abruptly, his eyes widening uncontrollably, his lips pressed together until they turned pale.

His mind was foggy, and she had completely overwhelmed him with her words, leaving him barely able to catch his breath.

Song Zhishu simply watched him quietly as he struggled in the darkness until he was in unbearable pain.

Slowly, his breathing calmed down, but his eyes were already overflowing with uncontrollable affection, almost so tender that they seemed to melt into water, then shatter into ice shards, which dripped down with the moonlight and gathered into drops of crystal tears when they met the cold.

In the end, all that was left for her was the extremely hoarse "Teacher Song".

Song Zhishu smiled, looked up at him, and uttered softly, with an ambiguous meaning: "Coward."

In this ambiguous, damp, and mesmerizing scene, three words that seemed meant for flirting stung Min Xiuze so much that his face turned pale, and his pupils became even dimmer.

His tall figure loomed over Song Zhishu, like an impenetrable shield. His hands braced against the wall above her, his head bowed lower and lower, as if endlessly wanting to get closer, yet fearing to touch her even slightly. He lowered his head again and again, letting out low sobs like a trapped beast.

Min Xiu was not timid.

He was never timid.

He struggled and persevered from a young age, walking alone through autumn frost and winter snow.

He faced death with equanimity, he sacrificed his life with equanimity, and a knife pierced his heart.

But he was never afraid of anything.

But when faced with a single word from this person who withered away at the slightest exertion, calling him a "coward," he was utterly destroyed, his heart and courage shattered.

Her future is bright and beautiful, just like her.

If his mark were just a little lighter, a little lighter, it could be silently removed from her, no longer hindering her in the slightest, allowing her to embark on a journey to happiness. That would be just right. He wasn't entirely wicked, but he was certainly insatiable.

Take advantage of any opportunity, exploit any loophole.

But this time, he wanted her to leave.

Go far away

After inferiority complex, Min Xiuze's third unforgettable emotion was selflessness.
